14: Wolves surround deer

Numb, tingly!

It was a magical sensation, as if Lin Tianwei had eaten hundreds of Sichuan peppercorns at once, assaulting his tongue.

He couldn't help but stick out his tongue and wag it up and down.

He tried to use the cold wind to alleviate the intoxicating feeling on his tongue.

Lin Tianwei sighed.

The Talent Extraction System was very good, but unfortunately, the Reinforcement process was too intense.

Every time, it made him feel as if he was about to die.

It even greatly affected his combat power, making it a hidden weakness.

Of course, this weakness wasn't absolute.

Lin Tianwei believed that once his overall physical fitness became stronger, he would be able to easily withstand the side effects of Reinforcement.

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for acquiring a new Talent. Your tongue has undergone a certain degree of evolution."

Two hours later, the numb and tingly sensation on Lin Tianwei's tongue completely receded.

This also meant that his Reinforcement was complete.

Wagging his tongue, Lin Tianwei found that it had indeed undergone some changes.

Compared to before, it was more Flexible and could perform some more difficult movements.

As for its heat dissipation ability?

Perhaps because it wasn't needed at the moment, Lin Tianwei's feeling wasn't very obvious.

Maybe only at a critical moment would this Talent display its true power.

Retracting his tongue, Lin Tianwei began to examine his food.

The wild dogs he had just hunted.

Although the Reinforcement of his tongue didn't consume much energy, so much time had passed that it was time for Lin Tianwei to eat.

Thinking this, he walked up to the nearest wild dog.

With a gentle tear of his sharp claws, he disemboweled the wild dog.

Smelling the enticing aroma of food in the air, Lin Tianwei didn't hesitate and directly lowered his head to gnaw.

After eating the most delicious internal organs, Lin Tianwei began to look at the next wild dog.

His food was plentiful enough to support his extravagant eating style.

After the internal organs of five wild dogs had all been hollowed out, Lin Tianwei finally felt his stomach was slightly full.

He let out a big yawn.

As the saying goes, 'when you're full and warm, you think of...' after eating his fill, Lin Tianwei also felt sleepy.

He simply hid the bodies of these wild dogs, then went to a nearby bush.

He lay down and fell asleep just like that.

However, while Lin Tianwei was sleeping, he didn't know that the distant gray wolf pack was not at all quiet.

Under the leadership of Black Fiend, although the gray wolf pack suffered heavy losses, their combat power increased instead of decreasing.

At this moment, they had set their sights on a group of Sika Deer.

There were seven or eight Sika Deer in this group.

They were large in size and seemed to be at no disadvantage.

But under the leadership of Black Fiend, these gray wolves were not afraid at all.

One must know that Black Fiend was capable of easily defeating the previous Wolf King while surrounded by the wolf pack.

Its combat power could only be described as terrifying.

Facing the encirclement of the wolf pack, these Sika Deer did not panic.

Each of these gray wolves had injuries, and their combat power was definitely less than half of their peak.

The leader was even a one-eyed wolf, and even though its body was large, its combat power would be greatly reduced.

Furthermore, with only thirteen wolves, there was no need for them to abandon their companions and flee directly.

By staying together, more companions would survive.

Thinking this, they formed a circle, facing the gray wolves outside with their most aggressive deer heads.

This was their defensive formation, which would give these wolves, who dared to charge at them, a hard time.

The leading Sika Deer was a male deer.

It had beautiful patterns on its body.

Not only was its body large, but its massive antlers looked incredibly powerful.

If one were to be gored by its antlers in a less protected area, they would likely be impaled like a candied hawthorn.

"Yo-yo."

"Awoo."

An invisible contest began between the deer herd and the wolf pack.

Their calls were their best tool for displaying themselves.

It must be said that mutated creatures not only had greatly increased strength but also greater courage.

A deer herd capable of fighting a wolf pack was rare in nature.

Facing the deer herd that stood their ground, Black Fiend's eyes became bloodshot with anger.

It stared intently at these Sika Deer.

Facing the wolf pack's hunt, these foolish deer actually chose to resist stubbornly?

Since they were actively seeking death, then it shouldn't be blamed for being merciless.

"I will leave all of you here."

Greedily looking at the flesh and blood on the Sika Deer.

If they could eat this group of Sika Deer, the wolf pack's combat power would recover.

It might even reach a higher level.

Then, it would be even more confident in dealing with that hateful Siberian Tiger.

Thinking this, Black Fiend let out a wolf howl, and its massive body emerged from the wolf pack.

In this battle, it would lead the charge!

At the same time, under Black Fiend's command, the other gray wolves also prepared to launch an attack.

A major battle was about to begin!

"Awoo."

Wolf howls rose and fell.

They worked as a team, launching their attack under Black Fiend's leadership.

Black Fiend's massive body transformed into a phantom, attacking the Deer King.

If the Deer King could be quickly killed, it would be a terrifying blow to the morale of the deer herd.

However, the Deer King would not sit idly by and await its fate.

Its hooves constantly pushed against the ground, and it too was accumulating strength, preparing to launch a fatal attack on the wolf pack.

Seeing Black Fiend getting closer and closer, the Deer King remained motionless.

Now was not the best time to attack.

A rash move would only cause it to miss the opportunity.

Finally, when Black Fiend reached it, in a very advantageous attacking position, the Deer King launched a thunderous strike.

With the aid of its four limbs, the Deer King's speed experienced a brief burst.

Thrusting forward, its sharp antlers were like blades, fiercely stabbing towards Black Fiend.

The Deer King's movement was fast, but Black Fiend's movement was even faster.

It was originally attacking in a straight line, but with a burst of power from its four limbs, it easily dodged the Deer King's fatal blow.

Not only that, but it also set its sights on the Deer King's long neck.

As long as it could take that spot, it would quickly achieve victory in this battle.

With a flying pounce, Black Fiend attacked the Deer King's neck.

Its gaping maw opened, revealing sharp teeth, looking exceptionally ferocious.

With that bite, even with the Deer King's astonishing defense, it would at least have several bloody holes on its body.

However, facing Black Fiend's attack, the Deer King did not choose to fully dodge.

As a mutated creature, it was not an easy opponent to deal with.

In its bones was a fierce nature!

With a slight shift of its body, the Deer King avoided Black Fiend's fatal attack on its neck.

It used its sturdier back to withstand this attack.

Not only that, but with its front hooves braced on the ground, the Deer King's two hind legs kicked out quickly.

With incredibly powerful force, they fiercely kicked towards Black Fiend's belly.

The direction of this kick was even more incredibly subtle.

It was aimed at Black Fiend's vital area.

It could even be called a 'severing offspring' kick.

Black Fiend's eyes narrowed slightly.

It hadn't expected the Deer King to engage in a 'trade injuries for injuries' fighting style with it.

A trace of hesitation flashed in its remaining eye, eventually turning into determination.

Its ferocity erupted.

It would show this foolish Sika Deer what for!
